Micropen treatment 7 mnth post Accutane. Stinging face

Question

7months after accutane I just had Micropen procedure done today. I had stinging when washing my face. I also noticed a white spot Like raw skin. Is this normal

Rick Balharry, MD · Answer

the micropen is making tiny wounds in to your skin. these usually heal very quickly but, if you are washing your face with any kind of astringent, it likely will sting. the white spot is a little concerning but may be an area that was more actively treated and may need to be looked at.
